Bet This Goes On Across the Country; Barney Fife on the Take Edition

PHILADELPHIA — A disgraced ex-police officer testifying against his drug squad colleagues acknowledged Tuesday that he stole drug money, planted evidence and lied on police paperwork too many times to count.
They stole over half-a-million dollars in cash and stuff.

Those guys had been cops for at least 19 years apiece. I doubt very much if they had gotten to having eighteen years in on the job and only then decided to start stealing.

Between that and testilying, which has been going on for a very long time, and now the evident cases of "give us any difficulty and we'll kill or beat you", one has to wonder, Gentle Reader, when it will sink into the heads of a critical mass of the American people that too many police in this country have, for a long time, shifted from "to protect and to serve" to "to harass and to rob".
